INTRODUCTION. 



This chapter, dealing with the composition of the 
population, gives in condensed form statistics relative 
to color or race, nativity, parentage, and sex, as 
returned at the Thirteenth Decennial Census, taken 
as of April 15, 1910, with comparative figures for prior 
censuses. Alaska, Hawaii, Porto Rico, and other 
outlying possessions are not included. 

The classification by color or race distinguishes 
six groups, namely, white, negro, Indian, Chinese, 
Japanese, and "All other" (consisting principally of 
Hindus and Koreans). On account of their compara- 
tively small number, the four last-named groups are 
combined in some of the tables. 

The white population is divided into four groups: 
(1) Native, native parentage — that is, having both 
parents born in the United States; (/_') native, foreign 
parentage — having both parents born in foreign 



countries; (3) native, mixed parentage — having one 
parent native and the other foreign born; (4) foreign 
born. In many of the tables native whites of foreign 
parentage and of mixed parentage are combined. 

Following in each case a classification according 
to color or race, nativity, and parentage, statistics are 
presented in the first section of this chapter for the 
total population; in the second section for the total 
population distinguished by sex; in the third section 
for the population 21 years of age and over, also dis- 
tinguished by sex; and in the fourth section for the 
male population of militia age (18 to 44 years, inclu- 
sive). In connection with the population 21 years of 
age and over, much greater detail is given regarding 
males than regarding females and statistics are also 
presented relative to the naturalization of the foreign- 
horn white nodes

Of the population of the United States in 1910, 
81,731,957, or 88.9 per cent, were whites; 9,827,763, 
or 10.7 per cent, were negroes; and 412,546, or four- 
tentlis of 1 per cent, were other colored races. 

13—53—12 59057 



Of the total population, 78,456,380, or 85.3 per 
cent, were native and 13,515,886, or 14.7 per cent, 
foreign born, the latter consisting chiefly of whites. 

The native white population numbered 68,386,412, 
and constituted 83.7 per cent of the white population 
and 74.4 per cent of the total population of thecountry. 
The 13,345,545 foreign-born whites constituted 16.3 per 
cent of the white population and 14.5 per cent of the 
total population. 

Native whites of native parentage in 1910 numbered 
19,488,575, constituting 60.5 per cent of the white 
population and 53.S per cent of the total population. 
Native whites of foreign parentage formed 15.8 per 
cent of the white population and those of mixed 
parentage 7.3 per cent, the corresponding percent- 
ages based on the total population being 14 and 6.5, 
respectively. 

Of the total increase of 15,977,691 in the population 
of the country between 1900 and 1910, the whites con- 
tributed 14,922,761, the negroes 993,769, and other 
races 61,161. The increase in the native population 
was 12,803,081, and that in the foreign born, 3,174,610, 
or about one-fifth of the total increase. 

The percentage of increase for the whites, 22.3, was 
a little less than twice as high as that for the negroes, 
11.2. This difference is partly due, however, to the 
direct or indirect effect of unmigration upon the 
increase of the white population. The native white

ABSTRACT OF THE CENSUS— POPULATION. 



population increased 20.8 per cent and the foreign- 
born white 30.7 per cent. There was very little differ- 
ence in the rates of increase for the three parentage 
groups of the native white population. 

By reason of these differences in the rates of in- 
crease of the several classes of population there was 
some change between 1900 and 1910 in the relative 
importance of the different groups. Whites consti- 
tuted 8S.9 per cent of the total population in 1910, 
as compared with 87.9 per cent in 1900. Native 
whites, however, constituted a slightly smaller pro- 
portion of the total in the later year than in the 
earlier, while foreign-born whites formed 14.5 per 
cent of the total in 1910, as compared with 13.4 per 
cent 10 years before. 

It should be borne in mind that the increase in the 
white groups, from one census to another, represents 
more than the natural gmwth by excess of births over 
deaths. The increase of negroes and Indians, since 
their number is only slightly affected by immigration 
or emigration, is essentially a natural increase. The 
increase in the several white groups, however, is mate- 
rially affected, directly or indirectly, by immigration, 
which greatly exceeds emigration. The total number of 
whites is swelled directly by immigration; the number 
of native whites by the children bora of immigrants 
after then arrival in this country; and the number of 
native whites of native parentage by the children 
of the native whites of foreign or mixed parentage. 
Additions to the number of native whites of foreign 
parentage, of course, consist wholly of the children of 
the foreign born, while the additions to the native 
whites of mixed parentage are the children of inter- 
marriages between the foreign born and the native. 

It is possible, however, to estimate approximately 
the natural increase of the white population by sub- 
tracting from the total white population enumerated 
in 1910 the number of foreign-born whites who had 
immigrated to the country after 1900. The remainder, 
when compared with the white population enumerated 
in 1900, may be accepted as indicating approximately 
the growth in the white population apart from immi- 
gration, or, in other words, the natural increase of the 
white population between 1900 and 1910. The num- 
ber of foreign-born whites enumerated in 1910 who 
had arrived in this country subsequently to January 1, 
1901, was almost exactly 5,000,000. Subtracting this 
from the total white population enumerated in 1910 
the remainder i< about 76,730,000, which, as compared 
with the white population in 1900, 66,809,196, repre- 
sents a difference of about 9,920,000, or 14.8 per cent. 

1 To be strictly accurate one should subtract the number of 
children enumerated in 1910 who were born in this country of the 
immigrants who came in after 1900; this number, however, is un- 
known, and is at least partially offset by the number of surviving 
white persons (also unknown) enumerated in 1900 who emigrated 
from the United States before April 15, 1910, and the surviving 
children born of such emigrants. Moreover, one should deduct the 
survivors (number unknown) of the immigrants who arrived in this 
country between June 1, 1900, the date of the Twelfth Census, and 
January 1, 1901. 



This may somewhat exceed the natural increase, 
however, because certain minor factors have not been 
taken into account in this computation; 1 it is probable 
that the true rate of natural increase for the aggregate 
white population was not far from 14 per cent, and 
that this percentage may be fairly compared with 
the rate of increase in the negro population, 11.2 per 
cent.

The census of I860 was the first at "which Indians 
were distinguished from the other classes. Not, how- 
ever, until the census of 1S90 was any enumeration 
made of the Indians on reservations or "living in 
tribal relations," so that statistics for the group in 
which they are included in the table are not com- 
parable further back than 1S90. 

The distinction of white and colored is the only 
one which has been carried through all the 13 censuses. 
There is some doubt whether the small number of 
taxed Indians were counted with the white or with the 
colored prior to 1860. 

The proportion of whites in the total population, 
which was approximately four-fifths in 1790, has in- 
creased at each succeeding census, except for an insig- 
nificant decrease in 1810 as compared with 1800. 
The apparently lower percentage in 1SS0, as com- 
pared with 1870, is undoubtedly erroneous, being due 
to the faulty census of 1870, which is known to have 
been generally deficient in the Southern states. The 
number of omissions in these states in 1S70 is estimated 
to have been 747,915 whites and 512,163 negroes, 
aggregating 1,260,078. (See Reports of the Eleventh 
Census, Population, Part I, pp. xi, xii, and xvi.) 
Assuming these estimates to be correct, the white 
population in 1870 represented 86.2 per cent of the 
total and the negro 13.5. 

During the first 40 years of the period covered by 
the table, the proportions of whites and negroes did 
not change materially, although the total population 
more than trebled. Thereafter the proportion of

whites increased more rapidly — from 81.9 per cent in

i Exclusive of 326,464 persons (among whom were 117.368 whites and 18,636 
negroes) specially enumerated m lsuu in Indian Territory an I on Indian reservations. 
2 Estimated corrected increase. 

The addition to the total white population in the 
decade 1900-1910 was considerably greater than 
during any other decade and indeed exceeded the total 
white population of the country in 1N40. The in- 
crease in the negro population, however, was less than 
that from 1890 to 1900 and was much less than that 
from 1870 to 1.880 as based on the returns. 

If, however, the irregularity in the increase for the 
decades 1860-1870 and 1870-1880, due to the defective 
enumeration of the population in 1870, be corrected 
to correspond with the estimated population of 1870, 
the increase of negroes from 1870 to 1880 becomes 
less marked, although still greater than that from 
1900 to 1910. 

Assuming the estimates for 1870 to be approxi- 
mately correct, each decade since 1790 has shown for 
the wliite population an absolute gain larger than that 
for the decade immediately preceding, and the per- 
centage of increase for the white population has ex- 
ceeded that for the negro population in every decade 
since 1790 except 1800-1810. In the .50 years 1S60- 
1910 the white population increased 203.6 per cent and 
the negro population 121.3 per cent. 

A comparison of the decennial rates of increase 
in the white population from 1790 to 1910 reveals 
three clearly defined periods. From 1790 to 1860 the 
rate was high and remarkably uniform, varying little 
from 35 per cent. Tlwn it fell off abruptly and for 
three decades, from I860 to 1890 (accepting the esti- 
mated figures for 1 870), was close to 27 per cent. The 
third period dates from 1890, the percentage of 
increase being 21.2 from 1890 to 1900 and 22.3 from 
1900 to 1910. With respect to the rate of increase 
of the negroes, three similar periods also appear 
the second, however, beginning in 1830 and the 
third in 1880. According to the returns the rate 
from 18S0 to 1890 was very much lower than 
even the estimated rate from 1S70 to 18S0, and 



the rate from 1890 to 1900 was much higher than 
during either the preceding or the succeeding decade. 
Such abrupt changes in the growth of a class of 
the population which is not affected by immigra- 
tion seem very improbable and almost force the con- 
clusion that the enumeration of negroes in 1S90 was 
deficient. 

Indian, Chinese, and Japanese population. — In Table 
4 are shown the numbers of Indians, Chinese, and 
Japanese at each census from 1860 to 1910.

Indians in Indian Territory and on Indian reserva- 
tions are not included in the totals for 1860, 1870, and 
1880, but are included in the totals for 1S90, 1900, and 
1910. Since 1890 the Indian population has increased 
slightly, although a slight decrease is indicated for 
the decade 1890-1900; the Chinese population de- 
creased, while the Japanese increased rapidly during 
each of the two decades and hi 1910 slightly outnum- 
bered the Chinese. There were also enumerated in 
1910 other nonwhite races, consisting, for the greater 
part, of Hindus and Koreans, to the number of 3,175. 

Black and mulatto population. — Table 5 gives a 
classification of the negro population as black or mu- 
latto for the several censuses at which this distinction 
has been made.

No data are available for 1880 or 1900. Of the 
9,827,763 negroes enumerated hi 1010, 7,777,077 
were returned as black and 2,050,686 as mulatto. 
In 1850 the percentage of mulattoes was 11.2. It had 
advanced but little in 1870, being only 12 percent, but 
since 1870 the proportion of mulattoes in the total 
negro population appears to have increased very mate- 
rially, reaching 15.2 percent in 1890 and 20.9 per cent in 
1910. Considerable uncertainty necessarily attaches 
to this classification, however, since the accuracy of the 
distinction made depends largely upon the judgment 
and care of the enumerators. Moreover, the fact that 
the definition of the term "mulatto" adopted at differ- 
ent censuses has not been entirely uniform may affect 
the comparability of the figures in some degree. In 
1870, as in 1910, however, the term was applied to all

with the percentage which persons of each color or 
race formed of the total foreign born. 



COLOB OK RACE. 



POPULATION. 



The proportions of the native and foreign born have 
not changed greatly since I860. The deficiency in the 
census of 1870 affected the native population much 
more than the foreign born, so that the proportions for 
that year are slightly misleading. It is certain, how- 
ever, that for the native population the rate of increase 
has fallen off in each of the last three decades. For the 
foreign born the rate has fluctuated more or less 
directly with the volume of immigration. The decen- 
nial increases from 1850 to 1910 are shown in Table 7.

The distinction of native or foreign birth is significant 
for the white population only. The proportion of for- 
eign born among the negroes and Indians is quite unim- 
portant ; and while more than three-fourths of the 
members of the other nonwhite races enumerated are of 
foreign birth, the distinction has little significance. In 
the subsequent consideration of the population of the 
United States the distinction between native and 
foreign born is generally noted only in the case of the 
white population. 

White population by nativity and parentage. — Table 
9 classifies the total white population at each census 
from 1850 to 1910 as native or foreign born, and the 
native white population at each census from 1870 to 
1910 by parentage. Statistics as to parentage are 
not available for any census prior to that of 1870. 
The decennial increases are also given in the table 
for all decades for which figures are available.

compared with 18.8. For the native whites of foreign 
parentage, on the other hand, the rate from 1.900 
to 1910 was lower, and there was a decline even 
more marked in the percentage of increase for the 
native whites of mixed parentage — from 46.7 per cent 
in the earlier decade to 19.3 in the later. It should 
be remembered, however, that these percentages do 
not represent the rates of "natural" increase for the 
several classes compared, for the reason, already 
noted, that the births among the native population 
of foreign parentage are contributions to the growth 
of the native population of native parentage, and 
the native whites of foreign parentage are similarly 
dependent for their increase upon the birth rate 
among the foreign-born whites. These variations in 
the rates of increase are affected by preceding varia- 
tions in the number of immigrants and in their age 
distribution, sex distribution, and other characteris- 
tics, but the effects are very difficult to trace. 

A further presentation for each of the nativity and 
parentage classes of the white population is given in 
Table 10, which shows the proportion which they formed 
of the white population and of the total population of 
the country, respectively, at each census from 1 851 1 to 
1910.

Of the total white population in 1910, approximately 
five-sixjhs (83.7 per cent) were native and about one- 
sixth (16.3 percent) foreign born. The proportion of 
foreign born in the white population increased from 
11.5 per cent in 1850 to 15.2 per cent in 1860, and 
to 16.4 per cent in 1870 (doubtless slightly exag- 
gerated by the deficiency in enumeration in the South, 
where most of the population is native). Since 1870 
it has slightly decreased and slightly increased in 
alternate decades. 

The proportion of persons of native parentage among 
the whites has decreased during each of the four 
decades covered by the figures, falling off from 67.8 
per cent of the total in 1870 to 60.5 per cent in 1910. 



Those of foreign and of mixed parentage, taken 
together, constituted a larger proportion of the white 
population at each succeeding census from 1870 to 
1900, but the proportion in 1910 (23.1 per cent) 
was a trifle lower than in 1900. 

DIVISIONS AND STATES. 

Population by color or race, nativity, and parentage. — 
The population of the divisions and states in 1910 and 
1900 is classified in Table 12 by color or race, and 
in Table 1 3 by nativity and parentage. 

The general geographic distribution of the principal 
race, nativity, and parentage classes of the population 
in 1910 is indicated in Table 11.

Of the total white population in 1910, about two- 
thirds (54,640,209, or 66.9 per cent) were in the four 
northern divisions, and of the negro population, ap- 
proximately nine-tenths (8,749,427, or 89 per cent) 
were in the three southern divisions. The Chinese 
and the Japanese were mainly in the states of the 
Pacific coast and Rocky Mountains; and the Indians 
mainly on scattered reservations, and in states lying 
west of the Mississippi, more than one-fourth (74,825, 
or 28.2 per cent) being in Oklahoma. 

Of the 13,345,545 foreign-born, whites in 1910. ap- 
proximately five-sixths (11,321,016, or 84.8 per cent) 
were in the four northern divisions; and practically the 
same proportion (15,967,158, or 84.5 per cent) of the 
18,897,837 native whites of foreign or mixed parentage 
were in these same divisions. Of the total foreign- 
born white population, 36.2 per cent were in the Middle 
Atlantic division, a percentage which considerably ex- 
ceeds the corresponding figure for 1900 (32.3 per cent). 
The native whites of native parentage were widely dis- 
tributed, 27,352,035, or 5.5.3 per cent, of this class in 
1910 being in the four northern divisions, 18,561.146, 
or 37.5 per cent, in the three southern divisions, and 
3,575,394, or 7.2 percent, in the two western divisions.

' Less than one-tenth of 1 per cent. 

In 1910 whites constituted 98 per cent of the total 
population in the North, 95.9 per cent in the West, 
and 69.9 per cent in the South. The nonwhite popu- 
lation in the North and in the South consists chiefly of 
negroes, but in the West it consists chiefly of Indians, 
Chinese, and Japanese. 

Among the nine geographic divisions the proportion 
of whites in 1910 was highest in New England (98.9 
per cent) and lowest in the South Atlantic division 
(66.2 per cent); among the individual states it was 
highest in New Hampshire (99.8 per cent) and lowest 
in Mississippi and South Carolina, the only states 
where whites constituted less than one-half of the 
population. 

Native whites of native parentage constituted in 1910 
approximately one-half of the total population of the 
North (49.1 per cent) and of the West (52.4 percent), 
but in the South they constituted a little over five- 
eighths (63.2 per cent) of the total. Native whites of 
foreign or mixed parentage forriJed 28.6 per cent of 
the total population in the North, 24.5 per cent in the 
West, and only 4.3 per rent in the South. Foreign- 
born whites constituted a much larger proportion in the 
North (20.3 per cent) and in the West (19 per cent) 
than in the South (2.5 per cent). 

Considering the nine geographic divisions, the pro- 
portion of native whites of native parentage in the 
total population was highest in the West South Central 
division (65.7 per cent), but was approximately the 
same in the East South Central (64.8 per cent); it 
was lowest in New England (39.9 per cent).* On the 
other hand, the proportion of native whites of foreign 
or mixed parentage was highest in New England 
(31.3 percent) and lowest in the East South Central 
division (2.6 per cent). These same two divisions, 
likewise, ranked highest and lowest, respectively, in 
the proportion of foreign-born whites (27.7 per cent 
and 1 per cent of their total population, respectively). 

Table 14 also shows the composition of the popula- 
tion of each division and state in 1910 in comparison

Comparing the percentages for 1910 with those for 
1900, as shown in Table 14, it appears that wliites 
formed a larger proportion of the total popidation in 
1910 than in 1900 in each geographic division except 
the .Middle Atlantic and the East North Central, in 
both of which the change in the other direction was 
insignificant. In every Southern state except West 
Virginia and Arkansas the proportion of whites was 
appreciably higher in 1910 than in 1900. 

Of the total population of the United States, 53.8 
per cent were native whites of native parentage in 
1910 and 53.9 per cent in 1900. But while the per- 
centage remained practically unchanged for the coun- 
try as a whole, it decreased in every New England 
and Middle Atlantic state and also in Ohio, Illinois, 
Delaware, and West Virginia. On the other hand, 
the native whites of foreign or mixed parentage 
constituted a greater proportion of the population in 
1910 than in 1900 in most of the states of the New 
England and Middle Atlantic divisions, while the 
proportion declined or remained unchanged in every 



state outside of these two divisions except North 
Dakota, Delaware, and Florida. The foreign-born 
whites formed a larger proportion of the population 
in 1910 than in 1900 in the New England, Middle 
Atlantic, East North Central, South Atlantic, and 
Pacific divisions, but a smaller proportion in the Wesl 
North Central, East Smith Central, and Mountain 
divisions. Theslighl changes in the small percentages 
of foreign-born whites in the southern divisions, how- 
ever, are not especially significant. The increase in 
the proportion of foreign-born whites was most marked 
in the Middle Atlantic division (from 21.4 per cent 
in 1900 to 25 per cent in 1910). The proportion 
was, however, even somewhat higher in New Eng- 
land, although the change between 1900 and 1910 
(from 25.7 to 27.7 per cent) was less. The increase 
in the proportion of foreign-born whites was greatest 
in Arizona (from 18.2 per cent in 1900 to 22.9 hi 
1910), New York (from 26 per cent to 29.9 per cent), 
Connecticut (from 26.1 to 29.5), Pennsylvania (from 
15.6 to 18.8), and New Jersey (from 22.8 to 25.9). 

In Table 14 are given also the percentages native 
and foreign born hi the aggregate population. As 
already stated, practically all negroes and Indians are 
native, while most of the Chinese and Japanese are 
foreign born. Except, however, in the South and hi 
some Western states the colored elements hi the popu- 
lation are not of sufficient importance to make the 
percentages for the total native and total foreign-born 
population differ materially from the percentages for 
the native white and foreign-born white. These differ- 
ences are easily interpreted if the geographic distribu- 
tion of the colored elements is kept in mind. 

Broadly speaking, the percentage of foreign born 
has increased in the East and the far West but declined 
or remained practically stationary in the central and 
southern portions of the United States. 

White population by nativity and parentage. — Table 
16 shows for each division and state in 1910 and 1900 
the percentage of the total white population repre- 
sented by each nativity or parentage group. 

Naturally in those sections of the country where the 
population is almost all white the difference between 
the percentage which any class of the white popula- 
tion forms of the total population and the percentage 
which it forms of the white population is inappreciable. 
In the South, however, the difference is very marked. 
In the South Atlantic division the native whites of 
native parentage in 1910 constituted 60.2 per cent of 
the total population, but 91 per cent of the white popu- 
lation. In the East South Central division the per- 
centages were 64. 8 and '.M.S. respectively; in the West 
South Central, 65.7 and S5.S. Of the white population 
of North Carolina in 1910, 99 per cent were natives of 
native parentage, the corresponding percentage in

South Carolina being 97.5; in Georgia, 97.2; in Ten- 
nessee, 96.7; in Mississippi, 96.3; in Alabama, 95.8; 
in Virginia, 95.4; and in Arkansas, 95.3.

In both the New England and the Middle Atlantic 
divisions the native whites of native parentage con- 
stituted less than half the whole number of white 
persons in 1910. In Minnesota only 27.9 per cent, or 
hardly more than one-fourth, of the total white popu- 
lation were natives of native parentage. The percent- 



age was almost as low in North Dakota, where it was 
28.5 ; in Wisconsin it was 32.9. Other low percentages 
were found in the East. In Rhode Island 30 per cent 
of the white population were natives of native parent- 
age; in Massachusetts, 33.2 per cent; in Connecticut, 
and also hi New York, 36 per cent, These are all the 
states in which less than two-fifths of the white popula- 
tion were natives of native parentage. There are also 
nine other states where the native whites of native par- 
entage formed less than half the white population. 
In several states the native whites of native parentage 
were exceeded in number by those of foreign or mixed 
parentage. This was the case in Massachusetts, Rhode 
Island, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and North Dakota. 

Increase by color or race, nativity, and parentage. — 
The absolute and relative increase during the decade 
1900-1910 is shown by divisions and states for the 
principal color or race, nativity, and parentage ele- 
ments in Table 17. 

The statistics in this table are particularly useful in 
that they show the relative increase of the several 
elements within a single division or state. Differ- 
ences among divisions or states with reference to the 
rate of increase for any given class may result merely 
from the general differences in the rate at which the 
population as a whole is increasing. In considering 
these statistics it should be borne in mind that the 
increase in any given class by no means represents 
exactly the natural growth by excess of births over 
deaths. Aside from the factors which have already 
been mentioned as contributing to the growth of the 
several elements, particularly the white elements, in 
the country as a whole (see page 78), the growth in 
individual states and divisions is largely affected by 
interstate and inter-divisional migration. 

Between 1900 and 1910 the white population 
increased more rapidly than the negro in each of the 
three Mint hern divisions, where negroes are most. 
numerous, and also in the New England. West North 
Central, and .Mountain divisions. In the Middle 
Atlantic, Easl North Central, and Pacific divisions, 
however, the negroes increased the. more rapidly, but 
in the Pacific division there are still very few negroes. 
In the South as a whole the white population increased 
from L6 521,970 to 20,547,420, or 24.4 per cent, while 
the negroes increased from 7.922.969 to 8,749.427, or 
10.4 per cent. Migration of whites to the South and 
of negroes to the North accounts in part for this dif- 
ference. Many of the individual states in the north- 
ern and western divisions present conditions as to the 
relative growth of the white and negro population dif- 
fering from those shown by the divisions in which 
the states are located. In the South, however, the only 
states where the negroes increased faster than the 
whites were Arkansas, Oklahoma, and West Virginia.

COLOR OR RACE, NATIVITY, AND PARENTAGE. 



91 



The white population increased during the decade 
1900-1910 in every state except Iowa, and there were 
only six states — Kentucky, Indiana, Maine, Missouri, 
New Hampshire, and Vermont — in which the increase 
was less than 10 per cent. The negro population 
decreased in Maryland, Kentucky, Tennessee, and 
Missouri, as well as in two New England states. Among 
the Southern states with a considerable negro popu- 
lation the highest relative increase was in Oklahoma, 
147.1 per cent, as compared with 115.5 per cent for the 
whites. West Virginia, Florida, and Arkansas showed 
high percentages of increase for the negroes, while 
Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Texas, North Carolina, 
and Georgia, all with a large negro population, showed 
percentages of increase ranging from 9.7 to 13.7, or 
about the same as that for the country as a whole. 

During the decade 1900-1910 the foreign-born while 
population increased by a greater percentage than the 
native white in the New England, Middle Atlantic, 
East North Central, South Atlantic, and Pacific 
divisions. The opposite was the case in the four other 
divisions; an actual decrease of foreign-bom whites 
occurred in the East South Central division. In the 
Middle Atlantic division the foreign-bom whites 
increased 40.2 per cent, as compared with 19 per cent 
for the native whites. Of the total increase in the 
foreign-born whites in the country as a whole 
(3,131,728), nearly one-half (1,524,063) was in the 
Middle Atlantic division and most of the remainder in 
the East North Central, Pacific, and New England 
divisions. The recent immigration has been very 
unequally distributed over the country. 

In all but two of the divisions the percentage of 
increase in the native whites of native parentage was 
materially higher than that in the native whites of 
foreign or mixed parentage; in the East South Central 
division, in fact, the latter decreased. In Xew Eng- 
land, however, the native whites of native parentage 
increased only 4.1 per cent, while those of foreign or 
mixed parentage increased 30 per cent, and in the 
Middle Atlantic division the corresponding percentages 
of increase were 14.3 and 27, respectively. In New 
Hampshire there was an actual decrease in the native 
whites of native parentage, and in Vermont and Maine 
the increase was very slight. 

Very few individual states present exceptions to the 
conditions in the geographic divisions in which they 
are located with respect to the relative rates of increase 
of native and foreign-born whites, or the relative rates 
of increase of native whites of native parentage and 
native whites of foreign or mixed parentage. 

New Hampshire is the only state which contained 
fewer native whites of native parentage in 1910 than 
in 1900, but in Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, South Carolina, 
Kentucky, Tennessee, and Mississippi a decrease oc- 
curred in the native whites of foreign or mixed parent- 
age, and in Wisconsin, Iowa, Nebraska, Kentucky , and 
Louisiana the foreign-born whites decreased. 



TJBBAN AND RURAL POPULATION. 



Table 18 classifies the principal color or race, nativity, 
and parentage classes in 1910 as urban or rural for each 
geographic division, and further distributes the urban 
population by classes of cities. The accompanying 
diagram shows, by geographic divisions, the relative 
importance of the several classes of population in 
urban and rural communities, respectively.

NATIVE WHITE -FOREIGN OR MIXED PARENTAGE 



There Is in the country as a whole and in most indi- 
vidual states a marked difi'erence between the compo- 
sition of the urban population and that of the rural. 
Of the aggregate urban population — that is, the popu- 
lation of incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or 
more, including New England towns of that size — of 
the United States in 1910, 41.9 per cent were native 
whites of native parentage, 29 per cent native whites of 
foreign or mixed parentage, 22.6 per cent foreign-born 
whites, and 6.3 percent negroes. In the rural popula- 
tion, on the other hand, 64. 1 per cent were native whites 
of native parentage, onby 13.3 per cent were native 
whites of foreign or mixed parentage, and 7.5 per cent 
were foreign-born whites, while negroes constituted 14.5 
per cent. Thus the foreign-born whites and their chil- 
dren constituted fully one-half (51.6 per cent) of the 
urban population and only about one-fifth of the rural.

COLOR OR RACE, NATIVITY, AND PARENTAGE. 



93 



The native whites of native parentage constituted 
hardly more than two-fifths of the urban population, 
but over three-fifths of the rural. It should be noted 
that the negro population is mainly in the South, 
where there are comparatively few very large cities. 

The conditions in the New England and Middle 
Atlantic divisions are especially noteworthy. Only 
about one-third (33.9 and 34.4 per cent, respectively) 
of the urban population of these divisions in 1910 con- 
sisted of native whites of native parentage, while over 
two-thirds of the rural population (69.8 per cent and 67 
per cent, respectively) were of that class. Broadly 
speaking, of the urban population of these divisions, 
almost one-thud were foreign-born whites, fully one- 
third (including persons of mixed parentage) were 
children of foreign-born whites, and one-third were 
native whites of native parentage. 

In the South, where the total number of foreign- 
born whiles and of native whites of foreign or mixed 
parentage is small, these classes constituted a very much 
larger proportion of the urban than of the rural popula- 
tion. In the South Atlantic division, for example, 
native whites of foreign or mixed parentage and foreign- 
born whites in 1910 constituted 10.1 and 6.2 per cent, 
respectively, of the urban population but only 1.4 and 
1.1 per cent, repectively, of the rural population. 

In the South as a whole, the proportion of negroes 
in urban communities was about the same a.s the propor- 
tion in rural communities, though in i he I South Atlantic 
division negroes in 1910 formed 29.4 per cent of the ur- 
ban and 35.2 per cent of the rural population. On the 
other hand, in the East South Central division the cor- 
responding proportions were 32.3 and 31.4 per cent, 
respectively; and in the West South Central division, 

22.3 per cent and 22.7 per cent . 

Table 18 shows also the rare and nativity composi- 
tion of the population for classes of cities. In gen- 
eral, the relative numerical importance of the native 
whites of native parentage declines :l s the size of the 
cities increases. Of the aggregate population in 1910 
of the eight cities of the United States having more 
than 500,000 inhabitants, only 25.6 per cent were 
native whites of native parentage. 37.2 per cent being 
native whites of foreign or mixed parentage and 33.6 
per cent foreign-born whites. The percent age of native 
whites of native parentage, which, as previously noted, 
was 64. 1 in rural communities, falls off to 57.5 in the class 
of cities having 2,500 to 10,000 inhabitants, then to 

50.4 in the cities of 10,000 to 25,000, to 45.9 in the 
cities of 25,000 to 100,000, to 38.9 in the cities of 
100,000 to 500,000, and finally to 25.6 in the cities of 
over 500,000. 

The differences among the several classes of popu- 
lation with respect to their distribution between urban 
and rural communities are further brought out by 
the percentages in the last five columns of Table 
18. Of the total population of the country in 1910, 
46.3 per cent resided in urban communities, but 
59057°— 13 3 



of the native whites of native parentage only 36.1 
per cent lived in such communities, while of the 
native whites of foreign or mixed parentage 65.3 per 
cent and of the foreign-born whites no less than 72.2 
per cent were in urban communities. The propor- 
tions urban and rural in the total population vary 
greatly from division to division and the percent- 
ages for each of the four color or race, nativity, and 
parentage groups vary accordingly. In 1910, in New 
England, where the proportion of urban population 
is higher than in any other division (partly because 
of the classification as urban of all New England 
towns of over 2,500 inhabitants), 70.7 per cent of 
the native whites of native parentage, 90.9 percent of 
the native whites of foreign or mixed parentage, 92.4 
per cent of the foreign-born whites, and 91.8 per cent of 
the negroeslived in urban communities. In the Middle 
Atlantic division 55.8 per cent of the native whites of 
native parentage, 82.4 per cent of the native whites of 
foreign or mixed parentage, 83.9 per cent of t he foreign- 
born whites, and 81.2 per cent of the negroes were in 
urban communities. On the other hand, in the East 
South Central division, where the proportion of urban 
population as a whole was lowest, 15.7 per cent of the 
native whites of native parentage, 69.8 per cent of the 
native whites of foreign or mixed parentage, 66.7 per 
cent of t he foreign-born whites, and 19.2 per cent of the 
negroes lived in urban communities. In each of the 
divisions of the North and West the percentage of 
negroes who lived in urban communities was materially 
higher than the percentage of native whites of native 
parentage who Lived in such communities, showing that 
the negroes who have migrated from the South have, 
to a large extent, gone to the cities. 

PRINCIPAL CITIES. 

Table 19 on a subsequent page classifies by color or 
race, nativity, and parentage the population in 1910 
and 1900 of the 50 cities having more than 100,000 
inhabitants, and Table 20 presents similar statistics 
in 1910 for cities bavingfrom 25,000 to 1 00,000 inhabit- 
ants. The distribution for the larger cities is also 
shown graphically in the diagram on the following 
page. 

In only 14 of the •">(> cities having over 100,000 in- 
habitants in 1910 did native whites of native parentage 
constitute as much as one-half of the total population. 
The proportion exceeded three-fifths in only four cities, 
three of them being in the East North Central division 
(Indianapolis, 64.5 per cent; Columbus, 64.4 per cent; 
and Dayton, 62 per cent) and one in the West North 
Central (Kansas City, Mo., 61.9 per cent). On the 
other hand, in 22 of the cities of this class, of which 
15 are in the New England and Middle Atlantic divi- 
sions, less than one-third of the population were nat ive 
whites of native parentage, over two-thirds in all but 
one of these cities consisting of foreign-born whites and 
their children. In Fall River only 13.3 per cent of the

NATIVE WHITE - NATIVE PARENTAGE 
NATIVE WHITE - FOREIGN OR MIXED 



iT^rV FOREIGN-BORN WHITE 

■i NEGRO AND ALU OTHER 



The proportion of foreign-born whites was low in all 

of the southern cities. Among the northern cities it 
was lowest in Indianapolis (8.5 per cent) and Columbus 
(9 per cent). In many of the 50 cities the proportion 
of native. 1 whiles of foreign or mixed parentage was 
nearly the same as the proportion of foreign-born 
whites. The native whites of foreign or mixed 
parentage were relatively most numerous in Milwaukee 
(48.8 per cent) and Fall River (43.7 per cent). 

During the decade 1900-1910 the foreign-born white 
population in New York City advanced from 1,260,918 
to 1,927,703, an increase of 666,785, while native 
whites of native parentage increased only 183,841. 
In 1910 only 19.3 per cent of the city's population 
consisted of native wliites of native parentage. Of 
the total population of the United States approxi- 
mately one-twentieth is domiciled in New York City; 
of the native whites of native parentage, one-fiftieth; 
of the native wliites of foreign or mixed parentage, one- 
tenth; and oi the foreign-born whites, one-seventh. 

Among the larger cities the proportion of negroes in 
1910 was highest in Memphis (40 per cent), followed by 
Birmingham (39.4), Richmond (36.6), Atlanta (33.5), 
Nashville (33.1), Washington (28.5), New Orleans 
(26.3), Louisville (18.1), and Baltimore (15.2). In 
no other city of over 100,000 inhabitants did the negro 
element amount to one-tenth of the population. 

Table 20 gives statistics for the 179 cities having 
from 25,000 to 100,000 inhabitants in 1910. Among 
them there are only 41 in which the native whites of 
native parentage exceeded three-fifths of the total 
population in 1910. None of these are in the New 
England states, and only one is in New York. 
Cities in which as many as three-fourths of the total 
population in 1910 were native whites of native 
parentage are Huntington, W. Va. (87.6 per cent); 
Joplin, Mo. (86.6 per cent); York, Pa. (S6 per cent); 
Springfield, Mo. (81.5 per cent); Reading, Pa. (77.8 
per cent); Wichita, Kans. (77.7 per cent); Harris- 
burg, Pa. (77.2 per cent) ; Lima, Ohio (76.9 per cent) ; 
Lancaster, Pa. (75.4 percent); and Newark, Ohio (75.1 
per cent). There are 45 cities of this class where the 
proportion of native whites of native parentage was 
less than one-third. The percentage was very low 
in Lawrence, Mass. (13.6), Passaic, N. J. (13.8), and 
Woonsocket, R. I. (15). 

Among the 179 cities considered there are 27 in 
which the foreign-born wliites exceeded one-third of 
the total population. A majority of these cities (14) 
are in the New England states, 9 are in the Middle 
Atlantic division, and only 4 (Duluth, Minn.; Lorain, 
Ohio; El Paso, Tex.; and Superior, Wis.) are in other 
divisions. The maximum percentage of foreign-born 
whites was found in Passaic, N. J., where they formed 
more than one-half of the population in 1910 (52 per 
cent).

1 Ratio not shown, the number of females being less than 100. 

There were in the United States in 1910, 47,332,277 
males and 44,639,989 females, or 106 males to each 
100 females. In most European countries females 
outnumber males, the number of males to 100 females, 
according to recent censuses, being 93.7 in England 
and Wales, 96.7 in France, 97.4 in the German Empire, 
97 in Switzerland, 99 in Italy, 96.5 in Austria, 99.1 
in Hungary, and 98.9 in Russia. 

The excess of males in the United States is partly 
due to extensive immigration, a much larger propor- 
tion of the immigrants being males than females. 
In the native white population of the United States, 
however, there is also an excess of males over females. 
The number of males in this class in 1910 was 
34,654,457 and the number of females 33,731,955, the 
ratio being 102.7 males to each 100 females. 

Considerable differences in sex distribution appear 
among the several classes of population hi the United 
States. There is a great excess of males in the Chinese 
and Japanese population, and among the foreign- 
born whites in 1910 there were 129.2 males to 100 
females. The variations in sex distribution among 
the several native groups — the negroes, the Indians 
(these two classes being practically all native), and the 
three parentage groups of native whites — are not 
easily explained. They may in some degree reflect 
variations in the ratio between male and female 
births combined with differences in the death rates, 
particularly of young children, in the respective 
groups. Among the native whites of native parentage 
in 1910 there were 104 males to 100 females, but among 
those of foreign parentage there was an almost 
exact equality of the sexes. Among native whites of 
mixed parentage the females outnumbered the males, 



and tlus was also the case among the negroes, the ratio 
for the negroes being 98.9 males to 100 females. 
Among the Indians the males were hi the majority. 

Males increased more rapidly than females in the 
United States from 1900 to 1910. The former in- 
creased from 38,816, 44S to 47,332,277, an increase of 
8,515,829, or 21.9 percent; the latter from 37,178,127 
to 44,639,989, an increase of 7,461,862, or 20.1 
per cent. There were 106 males to 100 females in 
1910 as compared with 104.4 in 1900. The increas- 
ing predominance of males among immigrants largely 
accounts for this difference in the rate of increase 
of the two sexes. Little change occurred in the sex 
ratio for the native population, but among the foreign- 
born whites the ratio increased from 117.4 males to 
100 females in 1900 to 129.2 in 1910. 

Comparison with earlier censuses. — Table 22 shows, 
for each census from 1820 to 1910, the number of 
males and females in the total population, and the 
ratio of males to females for the total population, 
and for the whites and negroes separately; and also, 
for each census from 1850 to 1910, the ratio for the 
native whites and the foreign-born whites.

The sex ratio of the total population, while it has 
not varied greatly since 1S20, reveals a tendency to 
an increasing preponderance of males, largely accounted 
for, no doubt, by increasing immigration. The rather 
marked decline in the ratio of males to females 
revealed by the census of 1870 probably reflects the 
effects of the Civil War. The decline between 1890 
and 1900 is attributable to the check to immigration 
consequent upon the financial crisis of 1893. On the 
other hand, the enormous immigration between 1900 
and 1910 resulted in a relative excess of males in 1910 
greater than recorded by an}' previous census. The 
excess of males over females has, at every census since 
1830, been confined to the whites, there being a slight 
excess of females over males in the negro population. 
The sex of the negro population was not reported prior 
to 1820. For the whites the number of males to 100 
females in 1790 was 103.8, and both in 1800 and 1810 
it was 104. 

There has been little variation in the ratio of males 
to females in the native white population since 1880,

ABSTRACT OF THE CENSUS— POPULATION. 



but the ratio in 1S70 — 100.6 males to 100 females — 
was appreciably lower than at the subsequent cen- 
suses. Among foreign-born whites the ratio of 
nudes to females was higher in 1910 than at any of 
the preceding censuses for which figures arc. available. 

DIVISIONS AND STATES. 
The population of each geographic division for the 
principal color or race, nativity, and parentage 
elements, in 1910 and 1900, is classified by sex 



in Table 23. Similar data for each state are given in 
Tables 25 and 26 on subsequent pages, except that the 
1900 figures are given only for the aggregate and for 
the foreign-born white population, the latter being the 
only large class in which there has been a material 
change in sex distribution since 1900. 

The accompanying map shows graphically the dif- 
ferences among the states in the ratio of males to 
females in the total population for 1910. 



RATIO (>F MALES To FEMALES IN THE TOTAL POITLATIoX: Kilo. 




The preponderance of males in the aggregate popu- 
lation in 1910 was most marked in the Pacific and 
Mountain divisions, with ratios, respectively, of 129.5 
and 127.9 males to 100 females. The proportion of 
males was lowest in New England, where there was a 
slight excess of females over males, and in the South 
Atlantic and East South Central divisions. Except hi 
the East South Central division, where the ratio of 
males to females was the same in 1 900 as in 1910, and in 
the Mount ain division, where it decreased slightly (from 
128 to 127.9), the proportion of males in each division 
was greater in 1910 than in 1900. The proportion of 
males increased in every state east of the Mississippi 
except in Kentucky and Tennessee, where the changes 
were insignificant. West of the Mississippi the pro- 
portion increased in 9 states, decreased in 12 states, 
and remained unchanged in 1 state. 

The sex distribution of the total population in any 
state is more or less affected by immigration from for- 
eign countries and by migratory movements from or 
to other states. The ratio of males to females among 



the native whites of native parentage is considerably 
affected by interstate migration. In general, men arc 
more apt to migrate than women. As in the case of 
the aggregate population, the excess of males among 
native whites of native parentage was greatest in the 
Mountain and Pacific divisions, which have grown 
rapidly through migration from farther east, the ratios 
in 1910 being, respectively, 119.8 and 117.4 males to 
100 females. In two of the eastern divisions, the New 
England and Middle Atlantic, there was an excess of 
females over males in this class. The number of males 
to 100 females in 1910 in the District of Columbia 
was lower than in any of the states. Among the 
states it was lowest in Massachusetts (95.2) and

(139.6), and Arizona (135). 

In every division, and in every state except Mas- 
sachusetts, Virginia, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and New 
Mexico, the proportion of males among the native 
whites of foreign or mixed parentage was lower than it 
was among the native whites of native parentage. In

each of the five divisions east of the Mississippi the 
males in the former class were outnumbered by the 
females. The lowest ratio shown for any division was 
that for the East South Central, 94.5 males to 100 
females.

In the foreign-bom white population the number of 
males to 100 females in 1910 was highest in the Moun- 
tain division (189.6), almost as high in the Pacific divi- 
sion (181.9), and lowest in New England (104.8). In 
the other divisions it ranged from 120.9 in the Middle 



Atlantic to 146.9 in the South Atlantic. The highest 
state ratios were for Nevada (331.4 to 100), Wyoming 
(287.2), West Virginia (261.8), Montana (238.4), Idaho 
(227.5), and Oregon (209.9); the lowest was that for 
Massachusetts (99.5). In every division, and in every 
state except Virginia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Ar- 
kansas, the proportion of males among foreign-bora 
whites was greater in 1910 than it was in 1900. 

The negro population in 1910 showed an excess of 
females in the South Atlantic and East South Central 
divisions, the two divisions where negroes are most 
numerous, but a slight excess of males appeared in 
the West South Central division. Among the other 
divisions females were in excess in the New England 
and Middle Atlantic divisions only, the excess of males 
in the other four divisions being doubtless due to a pre- 
ponderance of males among negroes migrating from 
the South. 

The sex distribution of the Indian, the Chinese, and 
the Japanese population in 1910 is shown in Table 
24 for the United States and for the states in which 
these elements arc relatively numerous.

URBAN AND RTJKAL POPULATION. 

Table 27 gives the ratio of males to females in the 
total population and the principal coloror race, nativity, 
and parentage classes in urban and in rural communi- 
ties, respectively, for the country as a whole and for 
each division separately. Table 28 shows the corre- 
sponding el assiliea lion by sex. The accompanying dia- 
gram shows graphically the ratios for each geographic 
division.

Of the aggregate urban population of the United 
States in 1910, 21,496,181 were males and 21,127,202 
females, the number of males to 100 females being 
101.7. Of the aggregate rural population, 25.836,096 



were males and 23,512,787 females, the number of 
males to 100 females being 109.9. In each class of the 
population the proportion of males increased between 
1900 and 1910— in the urban, from 98.7 to 101.7 males 
to 100 females, and in the rural, from 108.5 to 109.9. 

In every division also the proportion of males, both 
in the urban and in the rural population, increased 
between 1900 and 1910; and in every division, as in 
the country as a whole, the proportion of male-- in 
rural communities was greater than in urban. In 
the rural population of each division the males 
outnumbered the females, but in the urban popu- 
lation of three divisions — the New England, South 
Atlantic, and East South Central — the females out- 
numbered the males. 

The fact that females form a larger proportion of the 
population hi urban than in rural communities through- 
out the United States exists despite the fact that the 
foreign-born whites — a class hi which, as previously 
noted males are greatly in the majority — are largely 
concentrated in cities. 

The higher proportion of females in the cities is 
generally attributed, at least hi part, to the fact that 
the city as compared with the country affords more 
opportunities for women to find employment. Differ- 
ences in birth and death rates also probably affect it.

The proportion of males is lower in urban than in 
rural communities not only for the total population, 
but also for each of the principal color or race, nativity, 
and parentage groups. Thus in 1910 in the native white 
population of native parentage there were 99.3 males 
to 100 females in urban communities as compared with 
106.7 in rural. For the native whites of foreign or 
mixed parentage the ratios were, respectively, 94.6 to 
100 for urban and 109.5 to 100 for rural communities. 
A still greater disparity appeared in the case of the 
foreign-born whites, there being US. 9 males to 100 
females (itself a high ratio) in this class in urban com- 
munities and 161.1 in rural communities. Fornegroes 
the corresponding ratios were 90. S and 102.1 to 100. 

Especially striking are the very high ratios of males 
to females among the foreign-born whites in the rural 
population of the South Atlantic, Mountain, and Pa- 
cific divisions. The total number of foreign-bom 
whites in the rural districts of these divisions, how- 
ever, is comparatively small. 

In the three southern divisions, where negroes are the 
most numerous, there was only a slight excess of 
males among the negroes in the rural population. 
The ratio of males to females among negroes in the 
urban communities of the South, however, was par- 
ticularly low, ranging in 1910 from 86 males to 100 
females in the South Atlantic division to 90.6 in the 
West South Central. 



PRINCIPAL CITIES. 

Table 29 classifies by sex the total population and 
the principal color or race, nativity, and parentage 
classes in each of the oO principal cities in 1910, and 
Table 31 shows the corresponding ratios of males to 
females. The total number of persons of each sex in 
cities of 25,000 to 100,000 inhabitants is shown in 
Table 30. 

In 28 of the 50 cities of over 100,000 inhabitants the 
males outnumbered the females in 1910. In 39 of the 
cities the proportion of males was greater in 1910 than 
it was in 1900, and in 11 it was less. The number 
of males to 100 females in 1910 was greatest in 
Seattle (136.2) and only slightly less in Portland, 
Oreg. (134.5). Nashville showed the smallest propor- 
tion of males, or 89.6 males to 100 females. 

Of the eight cities of 500,000 inhabitants or more, 
Baltimore had the lowest number of males to 100 
females (92.4) in 1910 and Cleveland the highest 
(106.6). The population of Xew York City was 
almost evenly divided by sex; in Philadelphia the 
females outnumbered the males; and in Chicago the 
males outnumbered the. females. 

Among the negro population in 1910 the females 
outnumbered the males in 28 of the cities, the pro- 
portion of mules being very low in the southern cities 
generally.

POPULATION 21 YEARS OF AGE AND OVER. 



ALL PERSONS 21 YEARS OF AGE AND OVER. 

General summary : 1910. — Persons 2 1 years of age and 
over have certain special legal rights wit h reference to 
property, the elective franchise, and other matters. 
This class of the population is further significant from 
the social and economic standpoint, in that it' includes 
tlif great majority of breadwinners and also the great 
majority of married men and women. From the po- 
litical standpoint particular interest attaches to sta- 
tistics regarding males 21 years of age and over, 
although in several states women of that age also 
now have the right to vote at all elections. 
• For the United States, exclusive of Alaska, Hawaii, 
Porto Rico, and other outlying possessions, the total 
population 21 years of age and over in 1910 was 
51,554,905, representing 56.1 per cent of the total 
population of all ages. 

This total includes 26,999,151 males and 24,555,754 
females, the number of males being 10 per cent 
greater than the number of females. Table 32, show- 
ing the aumber of each sex in 1910 for each of the 
principal classes <>l' population, discloses an excess of 
males in each specified class except that made up of 
native whites of foreign or mixed parentage. Of a 
total excess of males amounting to 2,443,397, the 
foreign-born whites contributed 1,639,709. 

As regards color or race, nativity, and parentage, the 
composition of tin- female population 21 years of age 
and over differs from that of the male in having smaller 
percentages of foreign-born whites, Chinese, and 



Japanese, and larger percentages of the other race and 
nativity classes, these differences being attributable 
mainly to the fact, previously noted, that immigrants 
include many more males than females. Thus 20.4 
per cent of the adult female population in 1910 
were foreign-born whites, as compared with 24.6 per 
cent of the male, while 69.4 per cent of the former and 
65.6 per cent of the latter were native whites and 9.9 
and 9.1 per cent, respectively, were negroes.

1 Includes population of Indian Territory for 1900. 

Massachusetts, Rhode Island. Maryland, North Car- 
olina, and South Carolina were the only states in 1910 
in which women outnumbered men. The District of 
Columbia, however, showed a larger proportion of 
women than any of the states. 

There were two states, Nevada and Wyoming, in 
which men outnumbered women by more than 2 to 1 



and five other states in which there were more than 150 
men to every 100 women. These states are all in the 
Mountain and Pacific divisions. 

In a majority of the states, as indicated by the sex 
ratios, as well as in the United States as a whole, the 
number of men increased between 1900 and 1910 faster 
than the number of women. For the United States 
the number of men to every 100 women increased 
from 107.6 in 1900 to 110 in 1910. The states in which 
the ratio increased include all those east ol the Missis- 
sippi River except Kentucky and Tennessee, but oidy 
six states west of that river.

In 1910 there were in the United States 26,999,151 
men 21 years of age and over, constituting 29.4 per 
cent of the total population, as compared with 
21,134.299, constituting 27.8 per cent of the popu- 
lation, in 1900. Men of 21 and over formed 57 per 
cent of the total male population hi 1910 and 54.4 per 
cent in 1900. 

It should not be assumed that these statistics show 
the number of men having the right to vote. Aside 
from the fact that the totals given include unnatural- 
ized persons of foreign birth, there are in some of the 
states restrictions, chiefly based on property and edu- 
cation, which further limit the number of men 21 
years of age and over who can vote. 

In 1910 men of 21 and over constituted 29.8 per 
cent of the white population, as compared with 25 
per cent of the negro. This difference is mainly due 
to the fact that many of the whites are foreign born, 
and the foreign born consist more largely of adults 
and of males than the natives. Nearly one-half (49.8 
percent) of the foreign-bom white population in 1910 
consisted of men 21 years of age and over, while of 
the native white population hardly more than one- 
fourth (25.9 per cent) were men of that age.

ABSTRACT OF THE CENSUS— POPULATION. 



In each of the color or race, nativity, and parentage 
groups shown in Table 34 (except the relatively unim- 
portant groups of Indiana and Clnncse) males of 21 
and over constituted a larger proportion of the popula- 
tion in 1910 than in 1900. la the case of the foreign- 
born wlutes this change indicates a larger proportion of 
males among the hnxnigrants than formerly. In the 
other classes it reflects a change in the age distribution 
of the population, the exact nature and cause of which 
can only be determined by a detailed study of the 
age statistics. 

Table 35 shows the number of males 21 years of 
age and over hi specified classes of the population in 
1910 and 1900, with the citizenship of foreign-born 
whites, and the increase during the decade.

The number of males 21 and over increased 5,864,852, 
or 27.8 per cent, between 1900 and 1910. This is a 
much higher rate of increase than that in the total 
population, which was 21 per cent. Chiefly on account 
of the marked predominance of adult males among 
the foreign-born whites, the distribution of the total 
number of men of 21 and over among the several color 
or race, nativity, and parentage groups, as shown in the 
above table, differs considerably from the distribution 
of the total population among those groups, as shown 
in a preceding table (Table 1). Practically one-fourth 
(24.6 per cent) of the male population 21 years of age 
and over in 1910 were foreign-born whites, as compared 
with 14.5 per cent of the total population. Native 
whites of native parentage constituted 48.9 per cent of 
the total adult male population and 53.8 per cent of the 
total population. The corresponding percentages for 
native whites of foreign or mixed parentage were 16.7 
and 20.5, respectively. The percentage of negroes in 
the male population of 21 and over was 9.1, as compared 
with 10.7 in the total population. The proportion of 



foreign-born whites hi the whole number of males 21 
years of age and over was higher in 1910 than in 1900, 
while that of the two principal native white groups and 
of all colored races except the Japanese was lower. 

Of the 6,646,817 foreign- born whites in 1910, 
3,034,117, or 45.6 per cent, were returned as natural- 
ized; in 1900 the percentage naturalized was 58. The 
naturalized foreign-born whites in 1910 constituted 
11.2 per cent of the total male population 21 years 
of age and over. Those reported as aliens in 1910 
numbered 2,266,535, or considerably more than twice 
the number so reported in 1900. It is probable that 
most of the considerable number of foreign-born 
whites whose condition as to citizenship was not re- 
ported were also aliens. The increase in the propor- 
tion of aliens reflects the fact that a larger proportion 
of the foreign-born whites in 1910 were recent arrivals 
than was the case in 1900. 

Divisions and states. — Statistics regarding males 21 
years of age and over, by divisions and states, are pre- 
sented in Table 36 on a subsequent page. The relative 
importance of the principal color or race, nativity, 
and parentage classes in the adult male population 
is graphically shown in the diagram on t he opposite 
page. 

Marked differences appear among the divisions and 
states with respect to the proportion which men of 21 
and over form of the total population. These differ- 
ences are due to differences in the ratio of males to 
females (compare Tables 23, 25, and 26) or to differ- 
ences in the age distribution of the population, or to 
both causes combined. States winch receive large 
accessions to their population, either from foreign 
countries or from other parts of the United States, have 
in general a materially larger proportion of men of 21 
and over in their population than the other states. 
Among the geographic divisions, the Pacific and the 
Mountain divisions showed the highest proportions in 
1910 (38.6 per cent and 34.7 per cent, respectively). 
Very little difference appears among the four northern 
divisions, in each of which the proportion was prac- 
tically three-tenths, while in each of the three divisions 
of the South the proportion was about one-fourth. In 
every division, and in fact in every state except New 
Hampshire, Montana, and Colorado, the proportion 
of males 21 years of age and over was higher in 1910 
than in 1900. 

In the. three southern divisions, where there are 
comparatively few foreign born, the distribution of 
males 21 years of age and over among the several color 
or race, nativity, and parentage groups is not ma- 
terially different from the corresponding distribution 
of the total population. (Compare percentages in the 
last ten columns of Table 36 with percentages in Table 
14.) In the North and West, however, chiefly because

of the high proportion of adult males among the foreign- 
born whites, the distribution of the men of 21 and 
over among the several classes differs materially 
from the distribution of the total population. In the 
New England and Middle Atlantic divisions native 
whites of native parentage constituted in 1910 not 
more than two-fifths of the men of 21 and over and 
only slightly exceeded the foreign-born whites in num- 
ber. Nearly three-fifths of the total number of men 
21 years of age and over in these two divisions were 
either born abroad or had one or both parents born 
abroad. In the East North Central, West North Cen- 
tral, Mountain, and Pacific divisions, also, less than 
half the males of 21 and over were native whites of 
native parentage. 

In Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New York, Wis- 
consin, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Utah less than 
one-third of the men of 21 and over in 1910 were 
native whites of native parentage. In each of the 
states just named except Utah, and also in Connecti- 
cut, New Jersey, Illinois, Michigan, Montana, Arizona, 
and Washington, more than one-third of the total 
number were foreign-born whites, the proportion in 
fact exceeding two-fifths in 7 out of the 13 states. 

Taking the United States as a whole, the percentage 
of foreign-born whites in the total male population 21 
3-ears of age and over increased from 23.2 in 1900 
to 24.6 in 1910. This, however, was the net result 
of diverse changes in different parts of the country, 
the changes in some sections being much more 
pronounced. 

In all the New England and Middle Atlantic states 
there was an increase, and in most cases a marked in- 
crease, in the percentage of foreign-born whites in the 
total male population 21 years of age and over. In New 
York the percentage increased from 38 in 1900 to 43 in 
1910; in Massachusetts, from 40.7 to 44.4; and in 
Pennsylvania, from 26.7 to 32.1. In three of the 
East North Central states — Ohio, Indiana, ;md Illi- 
nois — the percentage of foreign-born whites in this 
class of the population increased; in Michigan and Wis- 
consin, on the other hand, the percentage decreased. 
It decreased also in every West North Central state — 
from 58.3 to 45.8 in North Dakota, from 40.3 to 30.6 
in South Dakota, and from 51.5 to 46.4 in Minnesota, 
the other states of the division showing less striking 
decreases. The percentage either remained practi- 
cally stationary or decreased somewhat in every Moun- 
tain state except Arizona. In two of the Pacific states, 
Washington and Oregon, the percentage increased, 
while in California it declined slightly. In none of 
the Southern states were the changes in the percent- 
age of foreign-born whites among males 21 years and 



over very notable, except in West Virginia, where 
the percentage increased from 5.2 in 1900 to 10.3 in 
1910.

ABSTRACT OF THE ('UNSUS— POPULATION'. 



Urban and rural communities.- Table 37 shows, for 
each geographic division, the number of males 2] 
\ cars ill' age and over in L910 in urban and rural com 
munities, respectively; classified according ii> color 
or race, nativity, and parentage. The percentages 
Formed bj the several classes of population arc also 
shown graphically in the accompanying diagram. 

In the United States as a whole males 21 years of 
age and over formed a larger proportion of the total 
population in 1910 in urban than in rural communi 
tics, Inn the opposite was the case in the New Eng- 
land, Middle Atlantic, and Mountain divisions. 

In i be urban communities of the United States us a 

whole in 1910, onl\ 38.2 per cent of the males 21 years 

of age ami over were na1 ive \\ bites of na1 h e parentage 
while 34.3 per cent were Foreign horn whites and 
0.8 per cent native whites of foreign or mixed par- 
entage; thus considerably over one-half of the total 
cither were horn abroad or bad one or both parents 
horn abroad. In rural communities, on the other 
band, nearly three fifths (59.4 per cent) of the males 
of 21 years and overwore native whites of native par- 
entage, onl\ 27.7 per cent being foreign-born whites 
and native whites of foreign or mixed parentage. In 

the Middle Atlantic anil New England division's the 

proportion of native whites of native parentage among 
males of 21 years and over in urban communities 
was especially low (30.2 and 33.7 per cent, respec 
tively), and the proportion of foreign-born whites 
especially nigh (44.2 and 44 per cent, respectively).

MALES 21 YEARS OF AGE AND OVER. 



113 



Principal cities. — Statistics regarding males 21 years 
of age and over in cities of 100,000 inhabitants or more 
in 1910 are presented in Table 38, and similar statistics 
in somewhat less detail for cities having from 25,000 to 
100,000 inhabitants are presented in Table 39. 

Among the cities of 100,000 inhabitants or more in 
1910 there were seven in which males 21 years of age 
and over formed more than 35 per cent of the total 
population, namely, Kansas City, Mo., Los Angeles, 
Oakland, Portland, Oreg., San Francisco, Seattle, 
and Spokane. In New York City the percentage was 
30.1, and in no city did the percentage fall below 26. 



Foreign-born whites constituted at least one-half of 
the males 21 years of ago and over in 1910 hi Bridge- 
port, Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, Fall River (63.8 per 
cent, the highest for any city of 100,000 inhabitants or 
more), Lowell, New York City (57.8 per cent), Paterson, 
and Worcester. On the other hand, native whites of 
native parentage formed less than one-fifth of the total 
number hi Chicago, Fall River (11.3 percent), Lowell, 
Milwaukee, New York City (16 per cent), and Paterson. 
The percentage of native whites of foreign or mixed 
parentage was especially high in Buffalo, Cincinnati, 
Milwaukee, Rochester. St. Louis, and St. Paul.

Citizenship of foreign-born white males. — Statistics as 
to the citizenship of foreign-born white males 21 years 
of age and over, as enumerated in 1910, are given in 
Table 40. Of the 6,646,817 foreign-born white males 
21 years of age and over in the United States in 1910, 
45.6 per cent were reported as naturalized, 8.6 per 
cent as having taken out their first naturalization 
papers, and 34.1 per cent as aliens, while for 11.7 
per cent no report as to citizenship was secured. As 
already stated, it is probable that much the larger 
proportion of this last group are aliens. Nevertheless, 
on account of the marked variations in the relative 
numbers of those for whom there were no reports 
regarding citizenship in the different states and geo- 
graphic divisions, comparisons of the percentages for 
those naturalized, those having first papers, and aliens 
are somewhat unsatisfactory. 



It is evident, however, that in those, geographic 
divisions in which a large part of the foreign-born 
population consists of recent immigrants — notably 
the New England, Middle Atlantic, South Atlantic, 
Mountain, and Pacific divisions — the proportion of 
the foreign-born white males of 21 years and over who 
are naturalized is much lower than in the divisions 
which have a relatively smaller proportion of recent 
immigrants, particularly the East North Central and 
West North Central. Many of these immigrants have 
been here too short a time to become naturalized. 
Among the states West Virginia had the lowest pro- 
portion naturalized (20.9 per cent), Arizona and Maine 
coming next. The proportion naturalized exceeded 
three-fifths in Kentucky, Iowa, Nebraska, and Minne- 
sota. Among the geographic divisions the Middle 
Atlantic had the lowest percentage naturalized (38.7).

FEMALES 21 YEARS OF AGE AND OVER. 

Table 42 gives the number of females 21 years of 
age and over in 1910, classified according to color or 
race, nativity, and parentage, by geographic divisions 
and states. 

As already noted, the composition of the adult 
female population according to color or race, nativity, 
and parentage differs from that of the rxlult male 
population principally in including a smaller percent- 
age of foreign born. This difference, varying in de- 
gree, appears in the figures for every state as well as in 
those for the United States. Apart from this, the com- 
position of the female population in the different states 
or sections naturally corresponds to that of the male.

MALES OF MILITIA AGE.

MALES OF MILITIA AGE— 18 TO 44 YEARS. 



Men from 18 to 44 years of age, inclusive, are 
subject to militia duty under the laws of most states, 
and represent substantially the theoretical fighting 
strength of the country in case of war. Table 43 
gives, by divisions and states, the total number of 
males of this class in 1910 and in 1900, with a further 
classification of the number in 1910 according to color 
or race, nativity, and parentage. 

The total number of males from 18 to 44 years of 



age in 1910 was 20.473,684, constituting 22.3 per cent 
of the total population of the country and 43.3 per cent 
of the total male population. Males of this age in 
1900 constituted 21.3 per cent of the total population 
and 41.7 per cent of the total number of males. In 
1910, 48.7 per cent of the males 18 to 44 years of age 
were native whites of native parentage, 19.1 percent 
native whites of foreign or mixed parentage, 21.8 per 
cent foreign-born whites, and 9.7 per cent negroes.
